How do readers find more time to read? In The Little Guide to Your Well-Read Life, Steve Leveen shares some of the most rewarding methods he's found for getting more books into your life and more life from your books.
Spend just three hours with this Little Guide and add years of fulfillment to your reading life.
You'll discover:
o How to read 12 more books a year even if you have no more time to read
o Why part of your personal library should be empty and a large part filled with books you want to read
o How to get a reading on a book before you read it
o When to give up on a book (even if it's a classic)
o How to create an annotated1 reading biography
Both practical and uplifting, The Little Guide to Your Well-Read Life shows you how to transform a pastime into a lifelong passion that gets stronger with every book you absorb.
The author's recommendations are disarmingly refreshing2, as when he advises when not to read a book and why not to feel guilty if you missed reading all those classics in school. He helps readers reorganize their bookshelves into a Library of Candidates that they actively3 build and a Living Library of books read with enthusiasm, and he emphasizes the value of creating a Bookography, or annotated list of your reading life. Separate chapters are devoted4 to the power of audio books and the merits of reading groups.
The author himself admits he came "late to the bookshelf," making this charming little guide all the more convincing.
